Chapter 46: The Shrek Team
Chen Zifeng: "Old Yao, why didn't you challenge Huo Yuhao? That way you wouldn't have to compete with everyone else like I did."
Huo Yuhao's role in the Main Team is control plus support, perfectly overlapping with Yao Haoxuan.
Using sheer strength to hard-control the entire field is the best control; defeating all opponents is the best support.
Yao Haoxuan:... "Old Chen, I just realized you're secretly wicked!"
The slender Yao Haoxuan punched Chen Zifeng.
During this year, which Soul Sect or Soul King in the Inner Court hasn't been beaten by Huo Yuhao?
The best way to establish prestige is to subdue these Inner Court Geniuses through fighting, and Huo Yuhao practiced exactly this.
The result was very successful. Huo Yuhao jumped the line to enter the Main Team, and no one had any objections.
Even though Huo Yuhao was only a twelve-year-old youth.
When a person's Genius exceeds your imagination and leaves you without the courage to catch up, there will be no resentment in your heart.
The Selection Competition quickly ended. Chen Zifeng secured the final spot on the Main Team with the powerful combat strength of his Soul Chasing Sword.
Although Yao Haoxuan felt regret, he was also relieved.
The Academy did not forcibly remove him from the Main Team, but rather used the form of a Selection Competition to give every Inner Court Disciple a fair chance to compete, right?
Just as Yao Haoxuan thought he had missed his chance for the Youth Soul Master Tournament, Elder Xuan, chewing on a drumstick, slowly told him to join the team as a substitute, causing Yao Haoxuan to be overjoyed and repeatedly thank the Academy for the opportunity.
"Children, you are all the most outstanding Disciples of the Inner Court. In this Continental Youth Soul Master Tournament, you will represent Shrek to reclaim Shrek's glory and let Shrek's prestige once again resound throughout the continent!"
Xuan Zi, holding a chicken drumstick in one hand and a Wine Gourd in the other, spoke to the eight people standing by the Sea God Lake.
His gaze swept over the eight people. Elder Xuan's eyes lingered on Huo Yuhao for a moment before moving away.
So this is Elder Mu's little Disciple.
Xuan Zi had deep affection for Mu En. At Shrek Academy, Xuan Zi could choose not to listen to anyone, but he always obeyed Mu En's words completely.
Since childhood, Xuan Zi was taught by Mu En on behalf of their Master, and Mu En was both a teacher and a friend to Xuan Zi.
Regarding Huo Yuhao, Mu En repeatedly instructed Xuan Zi to protect him well and ensure absolutely no accidents occurred.
"Of course, if there is a Main Team, there should also be a Reserve Team. The selection for the Reserve Team has also been completed. Now I will take you to familiarize yourselves with the Outer Court students of the Reserve Team. You will be close comrades in the tournament."
...Looking at the seven Reserve Team members opposite, Huo Yuhao recognized them.
Who told him to study not only in the Inner Court but also take classes in the Outer Court!
Through conscious interaction, Huo Yuhao had high popularity in the Outer Court.
"Come, come, everyone introduce yourselves."
"My name is Bei Bei, Outer Court Fifth Grade, forty-second rank, Strength Attack System Battle Soul Sect."
"Xu Sanshi, Outer Court Fifth Grade, forty-third rank, Defense System Battle Soul Sect."
"My name is Jiang Nannan, Outer Court Fifth Grade, forty-first rank, Agility Attack System Battle Soul Sect."
"I am Ning Tian, Outer Court Second Grade student, thirty-fourth rank, Support System Tool Soul Elder."
"Hello, Seniors! I am an Outer Court Second Grade student, twenty-ninth rank, Control System Battle Great Soul Master. My name is Xiao Xiao."
"We are Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo, Outer Court Second Grade students, twenty-eighth rank, Control System Battle Great Soul Masters."
Hmm, this is quite different from the Original Work.
But it's also normal. Without Huo Yuhao, in the Original Work, He Caitou, Wang Dong, and the Outer Court's First Echelon members—Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan—were completely unfamiliar with each other. Fighting solo, it would be perfectly normal for them to be focused down and eliminated during a Massive Free-for-All.
After the class division, Xiao Xiao became familiar with the Lan Sisters, and consequently, she also became familiar with Huo Yuhao, who often sought out the Lan Sisters.
Then, Xiao Xiao transferred her affection.
Xiao Xiao is a Yan Kong. In the Original Work, she was obsessed with Wang Dong in male attire. Now that Huo Yuhao is here, a pearl before jade, Xiao Xiao has joined Huo Yuhao's small group!
Ning Tian proactively built good relations with Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo; his true intention was not the wine, but Huo Yuhao!
As for Bei Bei, Huo Yuhao is, well, Bei Bei's Grandfather Generation figure.
Mu En is Bei Bei's Great-Grandfather, and Bei Bei is Mu En's Great-Great-Grandson. Huo Yuhao is Mu En's Disciple, so calculating the relationship, Huo Yuhao is Bei Bei's grandfather.
Mu En was very happy for Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao to interact more and develop a deep friendship.
Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei were Thick as Thieves; nothing happened without those two. Bei Bei's family member Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan are Best Friends. With this relationship layer, the three naturally grouped together during the Massive Free-for-All.
Because of Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei was very willing to help the Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo sisters, and thus, the Seven-Person Small Team was born.
It's worth mentioning that Zhu Lu and Dai Huabin seemed to have severed ties. How could Dai Huabin, who couldn't use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, be Bei Bei's opponent?
A series of Thunder Dragon Claw strikes left Dai Huabin's hair scorched black.
The Main Team members all looked bewildered.
What's going on? There are also Great Soul Masters from the Outer Court Second Grade?
Three of them?
What is Elder Xuan doing?
They also came from the Preliminary Selection Team, and back then, the worst among them were top-tier Soul Venerables, which is how they fought their way into the Preliminary Selection Team.
Never mind, as long as Elder Xuan is happy.
Given the current strength configuration of the Main Team, the team members don't know how they could possibly lose!
"Inner Court, Ma Xiaotao, sixty-ninth rank, Strength Attack System Battle Soul Emperor."
It's obvious that after Ma Xiaotao solved her Evil Fire problem, her Cultivation speed greatly increased. If it weren't for the effect that Ultimate Attributes cause slow progress between Soul Elder and Soul Saint, she could have Cultivated directly to Soul Saint.
Bad news: Ultimate Attributes slow down Soul Power progression. Good news: She's only a few ranks away from Soul Saint.
"Inner Court, Dai Yueheng, sixty-fourth rank, Strength Attack System Battle Soul Emperor."
"Inner Court, Chen Zifeng, fifty-seventh rank, Strength Attack System Battle Soul King."
"Inner Court, Xi Xi, fifty-sixth rank, Agility Attack System Battle Soul King."
"Inner Court, Ling Luochen, fifty-fifth rank, Control System Battle Soul King."
"Inner Court, Gongyang Mo, fifty-ninth rank, Support System Battle Soul King."
"Inner Court, Huo Yuhao, thirty-ninth rank, hmm, Support System Battle Soul Elder."
Finally, there was Yao Haoxuan, the substitute.
"Inner Court, Yao Haoxuan, Main Team Substitute, fifty-fifth rank, Control Support Battle Soul King."
No problem, Huo Yuhao participated in the New Student Assessment originally as a supporter.
The Main Team members twitched their lips. You call a Soul Elder who can beat up a Soul King a Support System Battle Soul Elder?
The Reserve Team members all cast surprised glances.
It wasn't because Huo Yuhao was on the Main Team; they were all aware of their close relationship with him.
What surprised them was that a fifty-fifth rank Soul King could only serve as a substitute on the Main Team.
"Alright, now that you are familiar with each other, from today until the eve of the tournament, you will train here on this Training Ground. Today's training task is to have a Friendly Match."
"Hehe, the losing side of the Friendly Match must shout, 'I am a pig, a big stupid pig!'"
